Our Keynote Speakers
Finding and Cultivating your Resilience
presented by Dr. Lise Deguire
Dr. Lise Deguire is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Pennington, NJ. At the age of four, she was third degree burned over 65% of her body, a result of both maternal and corporate negligence. Against the odds, she lived through this injury, enduring countless surgeries, extended hospital stays, and while attending different schools, faced loneliness, ostracism, and bullying. She grew up in a dysfunctional family and lost four members of her family to suicide. Despite these life challenges, Dr. Deguire has forged a triumphant path towards love, health, and life satisfaction. She waited 50 years, until all of her family members had died to tell her story.
Dr. Deguire spent most of her childhood in the hospital, undergoing countless surgical procedures and is the lone surviving child of gifted, unsettled and iconoclastic parents. She is the author of her multiple award-winning book, Flashback Girl: Lessons on Resilience from a Burn Survivor.
Dr. Deguire attended Tufts University, graduating summa cum laude, Phi BetKappa. She earned her doctorate in clinical psychology from Widener University and is in solo practice in New Jersey. Dr. Deguire has appeared on NPR, NBC, ABC, FOX, Sirius XM, and numerous podcasts. She is a blogger for Psychology Today, and has been featured in Thrive Global, Tiny Buddha, and The Elephant Journal. Dr. Deguire blogs about psychological resilience and is a national keynote speaker. Connect with her on LiseDeguire.com, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Linkedin.
